Scenario: Engine Failure After Takeoff

You are flying a twin-engine jet immediately after takeoff from a busy international airport. Just as you retract the landing gear, you experience a sudden, uncommanded yaw and a loud bang, indicating an engine failure. You are now responsible for safely managing this critical emergency.

Describe the immediate memory items you would execute, in their correct sequence, for an engine failure after takeoff.

In the event of an engine failure at or above VMCG during takeoff, what is the primary control input used to counteract the resultant yaw?

Select one option

Aileron

Elevator

Rudder

Thrust reduction on operating engine

Which of the following is a common critical error during the execution of immediate memory items for an engine failure after takeoff?

Select one option

Failing to apply full rudder

Incorrectly identifying the failed engine

Immediately reaching for the checklist before control is established

Forgetting to advise cabin crew

After successfully completing all immediate memory items for an engine failure after takeoff, what is the next critical section of the emergency checklist you would typically address?

What mnemonic is commonly used to assist in the rapid and accurate identification of the failed engine, and what does each part of the mnemonic refer to?

Following an engine failure after takeoff and securing the failed engine, what is the typical power setting recommended for the operating engine(s) during the climb to a safe altitude?

Select one option

TOGA (Takeoff/Go-around) power continuously

Maximum Continuous Thrust (MCT)

Climb thrust

Idle thrust

Which of the following actions are critical for minimizing drag and improving climb performance after an engine failure immediately after takeoff?

Select exactly 2 option(s)

Retracting landing gear

Retracting flaps to an appropriate climb setting

Increasing airspeed to VFE

Extending speed brakes

The 'Aviate, Navigate, Communicate' Principle

Having established control and performed initial emergency procedures, the pilot must now prioritize the fundamental principle of 'Aviate, Navigate, Communicate'.

In the context of the engine failure scenario, what are the key elements of 'Aviate' that the pilot must focus on?

What does 'Navigate' entail in this emergency situation?

10.

Describe the essential actions involved in 'Communicate' during this emergency, beyond the initial emergency call.

11.

Formulate the initial emergency radio call you would make to Air Traffic Control immediately after an engine failure after takeoff, assuming you are climbing out of a busy airport.

12.

After the initial emergency call, which of the following information would typically be communicated to ATC during subsequent radio calls?

Select exactly 4 option(s)

Number of passengers on board (if not already given)

Fuel remaining in hours/minutes

Intentions for landing (e.g., which runway, type of approach)

Detailed explanation of the engine failure cause

Aircraft weight for landing
